RE: Xangsane SP-9003Ag IC's l XS-1102Ag USB Cable In-House

Hi Oscar,

I just watched a video this morning, someone has tested few different brands in wall power cords, they were JPS, Cardas, Grey Knight, the result is, the JPS is most balanced cable, the grey knight has very good highs and mids,but the low frequency is weaker than the other two, so I am not sure if the said grey knight has the same sound character? Yarbo 1100pw is a safe bet as it is occ compared to OFC 9000pw and 8000pw? I made this very cable about years ago, both end terminated with Furutech AC F1-11 M(R)-N1 male and Furutech AC FI-11(R)-N1 IEC Female, I used to plug into my tube integrated amp Octave v110, it sounded very good, but after I reterminated both end by adding Baomain insulated fork spade wire connector Electrical crimp terminal 12-10(Amazon) to the bare wires to increase the contact area and easy termination, and swapped out the Furutech AC FI-11(R)-N1 IEC Female with a Furutech F1-11(cu) IEC Female,(based on you and someone frome head fi recommendation for using Rhodium-Plated male plug and copper on IEC), the result is greater!
Talking about your beloved Accuphase 40 PC, how many hours needed to break it in? I have listen it again today for few hours, the soundstage seems open up more than yesterday, the sound has more density than clone Odin gold, especially sounded good for orchestra music, strings and piano sounded more real than Odin gold, Odin gold sounded less clear and hollow than Accuphase. I may keep the accuphase.
